Editor, The Georgia Post:
I write this letter on April 4,
2013 after opening my April
2013 issue of Georgia Trends
Magazine. An article titled,
2013 Economic Yearbook,
first caught my attention. I
quickly turned to page forty
and read the information on
Central Georgia. Much to my
disappointment there was not
one word about our county.
We were listed in the three
Bureau of Labor Statistics
listings. Here is how we
rank from the years 2000 to
2010 for, Population +0.1%,
12,464 to 12,553; Employ
ment-2.1%, 1,509 to 1,297,
and Per Capita Personal
Income +4.6%, $21,852 up to
$32,359.
As a County Commissioner
for the past two plus years,
I have had conversations
with many Crawford County
citizens about their needs and

hopes for the future. The fact
remains that we individu
ally have our thoughts, hopes
and dreams about our future.
We all want our homes to be
places of peace and refuge,
our children to grow up and
become good citizens, our
jobs to be stable and strong,
and to live long enough to get
to retirement and have good
health and enough money to
enjoy it.
What about the future of
Crawford County and the sum
of us all. I look at the statis
tics above and can quickly
see where I am. I moved here
over 40 years ago so I am not
one of the +0.1 increase in
population. I have a full time
job as well as a part time job
so I am not one of those who
are suffering through unem
ployment. I have truly been
blessed by my employer and
you as a county and therefore
I am one of those that have
experienced an increase in
personal income. Where do
you find yourself?
What about those of us
on the other side. Why did
the +0.1% chose to move to
Crawford County? Would
they do it all over again, if
they had the choice? Who is
the person that is unemployed
or under employed? Where
will he or she find a job? How
about the young people gradu
ating from high school or col
lege this spring? Where will
they go to work? How is my
neighbor who has experienced
a loss of income fairing? Will
we continue to see homes
go into foreclosure where
people have no job or have
taken lower paying jobs? Is
there a hope for these neigh
bors? This is not meant to be
a sermon about my brother’s
keeper, but then again it may
be. ALL of US are citizens of
Crawford County. Much of
what affects one affects all.
